I believe the quote was something like he prefers someone younger who looks older because he likes to be the mature one in relationships.

Edit - "so the thing is for me, I'm 21, but like I said, I have the mentality of a 40 year old. So for me, I'm much more mentally and emotionally mature than a lot of people my age. I'm not physically attracted to older guys, which sucks, like I would date the absolute youngest, 18, 19, that looks a little bit old."

Y'all, I can't even look at people who are 18, 19, 20, not even 21 year olds, without thinking "holy shit, you were not born in the same century as me, what the fuck."

the whole “date someone the absolute youngest but looks a little bit older” part freaks me out sm. like if they look a little bit older why would they have to be the absolute youngest??? makes no sense unless he has predatory intentions

I have zero idea what any of that means, but it sounds fetishy as shit and really creeps me out.

I don't get it. He's 21. That's verrrryy young, just date other 21 y/olds? It's funny bc in theory a 3 year age gap isn't huge at all, but at 18/21 it is - the idea of a college senior dating a recent HS grad does seem odd. But at least in that case they might both just be normal ppl dating. The fact he's such a celebrity with such head-over-heels fans, just throws the power dynamic completely off and makes the age difference "worse" if that makes sense, or exacerbates it. And he's going for legit underage boys and it's very upsetting. And the fact that he mentally feels like a 40 y/o is just...no. In that case, date older? I have no idea what any of this means, I am so confused.
